You Know What
I shouldn't complain
There are others who have it so much worse
But you know what? I'm human
I feel pain and it hurts
I can feel the blood rushing to my face
Let's hold a pity party and cry
But you know what? So what?
I can tear up sometimes
I can see myself outside myself
and I tell myself, "Shut your mouth."
But you know what? Grow up.
I want to be loud
And if you disregard my words
Or you think that I'm weak
You know what? You're the same
So listen when I speak
And everything is quiet now
I can hear all of the world
And you know what? Guess what,
I'm just an ordinary girl.
